Cardfight!! Vanguard has been popular in the GSC offices for quite some time now – so much so that we’ve even established a ‘Vanguard Training Class’ run by some volunteers to explain the rules to the staff who didn’t understand how to play!

But anyway, I’ve started out today’s blog with this cardfight scene because today I’ll be looking at this lovely Nendoroid!! (`･ω･´)From Cardfight!! Vanguard:Nendoroid Aichi Sendou!

From the anime series ‘Cardfight!! Vanguard’ comes a Nendoroid of the shy character with a gentle heart, Aichi Sendou! He comes with three different expressions as well as a number of optional parts for you to recreate your favorite scenes from the series!

When the prototype first went on display, we received an amazing response from all Aichi’s female fans!

I received a bunch of tweets as well as emails with thank yous, along with many requests for Kai to be released too! Thank you to everyone for the amazing response!

This is how he looks from the back!

Aichi’s hairstyle is very hard to sculpt into a figure, but after looking around at all sorts of angles I can’t find any faults at all – it looks great all around! His hair is a very important aspect of him, so it had to perfect!

He also comes with a Wingal figure to fight beside him!

The Wingal figure looks ready for action! He is so cute!! （´∀｀）“Ride on Wingal!!”

Aichi also comes with a shouting expression, which really is ideal for the Cardfight!! Vanguard universe! (`･ω･´)

Obviously he also comes with some Nendoroid-sized Vanguard cards – it literally wouldn’t be a cardfight without them! Posing him like this shows off the cooler side of his normally shy personality!!

The Nendo Petite Vanguard series is already on sale, so you can grab them to display alongside Aichi to increase the number of units he has summoned! Here you can see I’ve placed Blaster Blade by his side – one of the most important units to Aichi!

Plus each of the little Nendo Petites is just ¥315!!

The prints on the cards are so intricate!

Each card is just 1cm x 0.8mm in size! They’re so tiny, but you can still easily make out that they are the Wingal and Blaster Blade cards!

Plus it’s great that you get two different cards, giving you the choice to display Aichi holding either of the two in his cardfight!

So… let the cardfight begin!A cardfight against another character!!

If you attach Aichi’s hand parts to other characters, you can recreate a cardfight scene just like this!

Aichi actually comes with two different hand parts for holding the cards – one with Aichi’s Vanguard fight glove and another one that was just skin colored – I wasn’t sure why at first, but now I see that the skin colored hand allows you to pose other characters having a cardfight against him!He also comes with an embarrassed face!!

I know everyone was hoping to see this expression, so of course it has been included!! He has a slight pink blush together with an innocent upward glance…

Definitely an expression fans can enjoy to their heart’s content!

It doesn’t seem that amazing when compared with the adorable expression, but he also comes with a card case to hold his deck which he is holding in his left hand here!
